This is kind of an old video (from right after Rick Perry announced he is running for President) but it’s still rather hilariously on point: And on a more serious note: Top Articles for Labor Day + Robert Reich NYT Op-Ed on how the massive wealth disparity in the United States hurts job creation. + [...]

A common claim repeated by Tea Party supporters is that President Obama has increased governmental spending by huge amounts dwarfing the spending done by any President before him. Unfortunately for those who make such a claim, there are no facts to back it up. In fact; Spending increased far more under President George W. Bush [...]

But George W. Bush certainly does not deserve any credit for finding & killing Osama Bin Laden: It was President Obama who changed US foreign policy to focus on Al Qaeda and Bin Laden in Afghanistan and Pakistan instead of Iraq. It was Bush who said that finding Bin Laden wasn’t a top priority in [...]

After the 9/11 terrorist attacks America “rallied around the flag” and gave former President George W. Bush 90% approval ratings. It’s interesting to think back to that time because of the way Democrats put all politics aside (at least for awhile.) It seems quite clear after the way the petty jealous way Republicans have responded [...]

Giving even the slightest credit to George W. Bush for the killing of Osama Bin Laden is ridiculous. Bush turned down an offer from the Taliban who wanted to turn Bin Laden over way back in October of 2001. Then in December of 2001 Bin Laden escaped in Tora Bora. Bush said Bin Laden was [...]
